Seeing Through Illusion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
An Illusion is when we believe something that is not true. When we see a mirage in the desert, the image is real (we do see an image), but the image is not what it appears to be. This discourse will cover how to recognize illusions and how to dispel them.
Is Everything Impermanent (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Everything we can see, taste, touch, hear, think or feel is always in a state of flux, always changing. Every living being comes with an expiration date. We might ask, "In a world where nothing is permanent, where can our true identity be found?" Is there anything that abides?
Fear of Awakening (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It seems odd that fear can arise as we approach spiritual awakening. It would seem that we would feel glad that all our efforts were finally paying off. Although fear is common, it is not inevitable. It depends a lot on how tightly we are holding onto our identity.
How to Work with desire (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"As we proceed into this investigation as to who we really are, fear may arise. This is a common, but not inevitable, passage. It mostly depends on how tightly we are holding onto our current reality. It is curious when we find ourselves longing to discover our deepest nature and repelled from doing so. This discourse will explore this challenging, but vital, territory."
